Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde BRASILIA, junio 6. — El ministro de Turismo del gobierno provisional de Brasil, Henrique Eduardo Alves, quedó atrapado este lunes en el esquema de corrupción de Petrobras cuando el procurador general Rodrigo Janot lo acusó de obtener recursos desviados de la petrolera. En una reciente comunicación oficial enviada al Supremo Tribunal Federal, Janot alegó que Alves actuó en el Congreso para favorecer a la empresa OAS y obtener a cambio parte de los fondos salidos ilícitamente de Petrobras, según reportó Prensa Latina. De acuerdo con el despacho del Procurador General, reseñado por el diario digital Brasil 247, parte del dinero habría servido para la campaña electoral de Alves, quien aspiró a gobernador del estado de Río Grande del Norte en 2014, pero resultó derrotado en las urnas. Las negociaciones del titular de Turismo involucraban al expresidente de la Cámara de Diputados Eduardo Cunha y al extitular de la OAS Leo Pinheiro, agregó. El pedido de investigación solicitado por Janot al STF menciona también, entre otros nombres, el del propio presidente interino Michel Temer y su secretario de Gobierno Geddel Vieira Lima.
